[I sent this message twice but did not get a response.]

Would someone please DTRT, then ack?
If the fix is simple enough, it should be installed in Emacs 22.

Subject: modification hooks called only once in c-mode

Hello,


occasionally modification hooks seem to be called only once in c-mode
(and derivatives).

This happens in both released and CVS version of Emacs 22, but not in
Emacs 21.


To reproduce, evaluate the following:

(defun test-bug-hook (overlay afterp beg end &optional r)
  (message "%s hook called" (if afterp "after" "before")))

(defun test-bug ()
  (let ((beg (point))
        ov)
    (insert "foobar")
    (setq ov (make-overlay beg (point)))
    (overlay-put ov 'face 'highlight)
    (overlay-put ov 'insert-in-front-hooks '(test-bug-hook))))


1) Create a new buffer in fundamental-mode, evaluate (test-bug), and
insert a char before the overlay.

Result:
before hook called
after hook called


1) Create a new buffer in c-mode, evaluate (test-bug), and insert a char
before the overlay.

Result:
before hook called


The hook is never called after the change.



In GNU Emacs 22.1.1 (i386-apple-darwin8.10.1, Carbon Version 1.6.0)
